What an exciting gathering of enthused, charged-up Texas Republicans met in Dallas last weekend. Words of encouragement form all our State-wide elected officials (candidates) and many of our Congressional and Legislative incumbents and new candidates. The common thread was that VICTORY in 2010 IS ESSENTIAL. Now we must get to work and make sure we elected more Republicans and retire as many Democrats as possible.
You can help with your fianancial assistance to the CRC and the TRHC. The CRC mission is to elect more local (county) candidates and the TRHC goal is to increase the number of Republican members of the Texas House. Both are important, but increasing our margin in the Texas House is essential if we expect to pass essential legislation  during the next session.
You may submit your donation to the CRC or the TRHC by going to www.texasgop.org and clicking on the boxes you will find on the right side of your screen. The CRC Goal is to raise $120000 - let's do our part. Oh, don't forget a donation to the Wichita County Republican Party, which may be made at www.wichitagop.net .

We're off the Republican Party of Texas State Convention today. It has been going on since tuesday when the committees began meeting. The First General Session wil begin tomorrow at noon, followed by the first Senate District Caucuses. Saturday will include another round of Sentate district Causcuses and another General Session where the Party Platform and State Chairman and Vice Chairman will be elected. Indications are, the sessions will be spirited as delegates discuss the direction they wish the Party Platform to take us during the next two years.

Of course, there will be political speeches and candidate hand shaking. All in all, an interesting and exciting two days.

To keep up with the action go to www,texasgop.org or  a blog that Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst is hosting (just google David Dewhurst to find it).

The Republican Party of Texas has launched the Victory 2010 Campaign with the appointment of State Comptroller Susan combs as Chairman. The purpose is to assist Republicans throughout the state in the election of Republican candidates at all levels.
